I have 5 PC's & Laptops that run Firefox. I want to identify one as the Master for Bookmarks. The way it looks now, if I sync from any one of the PC's it will overwrite what is there. I was a user of XMarks, but there latest version is very buggy. XMarks allowed yo to select which PC would overwrite the server bookmarks. The other PC's could then overwrite their local Bookmarks with the ones on the Server. I know that can download the Bookmarks, from the Master PC and import them to the others, but that is a very tedious process.

With sync, there is no master. Any change on one system is sent on to all others until they are the same.

Thanx for the response, but it looks like I'll have to use the d/l & import scenario until XMarks gets its act together.
